Access our downloadable, FREE Study Guide is included with all outreach training courses to help the student with the course. Each of these OSHA 10 hour courses takes about two days to complete.

The Rhode Island Department of Health maintains a large quantity of information regarding workplace safety. The state organization has an OSHA Consultation program which has a stated mission “To promote the safety and health of Rhode Islander”s working in small to medium size private businesses by identifying hazards and ensuring their timely abatement.” This program is targeted mostly to businesses with less than 250 employees. Rhode Island Safety Training follows OSHA Guidlines and directives since it is NOT a state plan participant.

OSHA Safety Training Special State Requirements for Rhode Island

Special note for Rhode Island OSHA Safety Training: According to Rhode Island State law, the state requires that all workers on municipal and state construction projects with a total project cost of over $100,000 complete the OSHA 10 hour Construction Course. This requirement is for on-site workers, including, construction workers, contractors, project developers, site managers, and/or any other individual(s) working on a job site.
